18. Your son [Baby AU]

PROMPT: Baby AU
Rating: General
SUMMARY: First few weeks with baby!Dakota

When Zak said he wanted kids, Nick (being the ever-doting husband) could not refuse. So, they decided to adopt. After the long process of finding the "perfect" kid (considering that both future parents were paranormal investigators and celebrities' in their own way), they both found just such kid in the middle of nowhere--Minnesota. Zak and Nick traveled to the adoption home a few days later to visit the little one and fell in love instantly.

The six month old had the largest brown eyes and softest spikes of dark brown hair. The moment Nick picked him up the child had wrapped his fingers around Nick's finger and peered up at Zak with his doe eyes and giggled uncontrollably. Nick had teased his husband that it was Zak's haircut that the child found so funny. A moment later, Zak pursed his lips at his husband and the boy mirrored Zak's facial expressions, which made Nick laugh. Oh yes, this little one was going to be just perfect.

They couldn't adopt the little boy quite yet, as they both had to go through a background check, but the pair visited the little boy as often as they could. Each day, Nick swears that the little boy looked more and more like Zak's biological son and began to take on Nick's witty personality. After several weeks of visiting the baby and tons of lawyers later, Zak and Nick finally came home in Las Vegas with their new son, Dakota.

It was crazy the first few weeks of having their baby boy home with their family and close friends coming over to spend time with the new family. Nick's sister and Zak's mom were the most attached to Dakota and dotted on him every chance they could. And every moment with their baby boy brought Zak and Nick even more closer. Nick was all heart-eyes when Zak came walking into any room bare-chested with Dakota in his arms, feeding him. And Zak was just a pile of goo when Nick lifted Dakota up in the air and the two pretended to be airplanes through the living room, giggling and laughing like a pair of teenagers. They were such a happy family and Nick would forever be glad of adopting Dakota into their now trio.

Yet, when night fell, the little demon spawn that Dakota was emerged. A cute little demon spawn that Nick loved so much, but a demon spawn nonetheless.

Dakota's cries echoed across the house and Gracie perked up from the base of the paranormal duo's bed. Zak groaned as he tried to wake up. Nick tightened his hold on his husband's waist, bringing the dark brunette closer to the other's body.

"Dakota's hungry, babe," Zak murmured.

Nick moaned and buried his face in his pillow again.

"Nick," Zak smacked his husband in the back in an effort to get him up.

"Isn't it your son?" Nick sighed loudly.

"At four am, that's your son," Zak replied.

His husband groaned loudly and got out of bed to feed his starving son, before placing a soft kiss to Zak's temple.
